Coin and Paper Money Collecting/state quarter misprint

Advertisement


Question
I came across this site searching the web. I have a Tennesse state quarter printed in 2002. One side is of washington's head and the other is all copper with the tn. items on the back. A friend has advised me to check into this so do i have a quarter worth anything more that a quarter? I also have a few of the Wisconsin state quarter misprints with the corn husk.. Same question are they just quarters or do i have something worth of value?

Answer
Hi Lori,
The TN quarter sounds like it it missing it's outer nickel layer.  I see these trade hands for about $10.  The WI quarters with the extra leaves I have been buying locally on a regular basis for $25 as long as they are not circulated.
